Abstract:With the recent switch in the design of general purpose processors from frequency scaling of a single processor core towards increasing the number of processor cores, parallel programming became important not only for scientific programming but also for general purpose programming. This also stressed the importance of programmability of existing parallel programming models which were primarily designed for performance. It was soon recognized that new programming models are needed that will make parallel progra… Show more
